Elina is looking forward to meeting the Armenian diaspora and inspiring the younger generation to engage in sports:
"I am incredibly excited to meet the Armenian community and share this special moment. Huge thanks to the Keron Development Foundation and Homenetmen Glendale Ararat for organizing this event. I look forward to meeting young tennis players, sharing my experience, and inspiring them to achieve new victories. It is a great honor for me to represent Armenia on the global stage, and I am deeply grateful for the support I receive," Avanesyan said in an interview with The Armenian Report.
Homenetmen Glendale Ararat, which is co-organizing the event, has played a vital role in the Armenian diaspora in Los Angeles since 1978. The organization provides programs for children, teenagers, and adults, fostering values of leadership, volunteerism, and teamwork.
